I'll have to look into them. I've been using https://www.octoink.co.uk for my photo printing and they have been great.
The sad thing is that there aren't any good review sites.

I've been using PrecisionInks for 10+ years. It is an old school family business and never once disappointed me.
I use this spectrophotometer for calibration: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1369004-REG/x_rite_eo...

The highway robbery is what keeps them cheap?
Honest Question: Would inkjets remain cheap if they all accepted $STANDARD bottles available everywhere and compatible with all printers.

We solved the similar problem for exchangeable storage media in the form of SD-Cards. Before SD Cards, the whole thing was fragmented like the printer industry. CF cards, minidisks, and proprietary memory sticks. It can be done.

Perhaps you should investigate why they exist. Seems too naive to wish for their disappearance due to lack of knowledge.

I've been using these for years for Photo printing. Can vouch for excellent quality and affordable price. You need a color calibrator to calibrate these inks + paper.
